According to the information given to GillW the 6 opals were meant to represent the 6 separate states of Australia (we are now 7 states) As far as I know opals are not found every where in Australia.
On a quick internet search tonight I found this site with a map.
http://www.opalsdownunder.com.au/learn-about-opals/intermediate/australian-opal-mining-fields
I have no idea if it is accurate, but it suggests that opals have been commercially mined only in New South Wales, South Australia and Queensland.
